The paper presents the theoretical bases, design and the principle of operation of two-stage precession type transmission with face meshing. Description and the principle of forming the face meshing which is modified by the original method have been shown as well. Dimensional relations between particular components of the gears are established and the analysis of optimal gear ratio, depending on the number of teeth or magnets on the circumferences of meshing gear wheels is also provided in the paper.
For further analysis four prototypes of mechanical precession transmission with face meshing were designed, built and investigated. Those prototypes present different sizes, reduction ratio and precession angle. Investigations, described in the paper, helped to determine the gear efficiency rate as well as the maximal torque that could be transferred for the given rotary speed.
This paper presents also the conception of the design of a novel double stage precession magnetic gear with face neodymium magnets. The results of the initial studies are the background of the further research in the field of magnetic precession type transmission.
The article presents an energy analysis of a real suction-pressure unit of a high-efficiency radial piston pump. This pump can be used in small hydropower plants, where, together with a variable displacement hydraulic motor, it would form a hydrostatic transmission. The main advantage of this solution is the possibility of a stepless, automatic change of gear ratio during its operation, which allows an increase of the efficiency of power generation in a hydropower plant. Mathematical models of friction and resistance of flow through self-acting and geometrical deformations of chambers and piston under stress field are presented. In addition, mass, volume, and energy balance calculations were computed for the ideal unit and pressure losses were determined. Derived indicator diagrams for each chamber of the ideal suction-pressure unit served to analyze the technical work of occurring processes. The paper also presents the formulation of total efficiency of the unit. Lastly, the experimental procedure is presented, according to which it is possible to register the most important parameters of the proposed model.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
